Probably I'll check back in 20 years, and we'll compare notes, then.

**Mari** · 05-13-2009, 11:31 AM

Sure thing

Are you having a great day so far?

sisterandcousinandaunt · 05-13-2009, 11:55 AM

It's a lovely day. Good day to get mounting hardware for the new solar lights.

**Mari** · 05-13-2009, 01:02 PM

Solar lights as in those charged by solarpanels on the roof, or small ones charged by individual solarpanels?

Grey_Wolf · 05-13-2009, 01:48 PM

I have recently begun experimenting with photos and words - this is my first such attempt.

We we talking about the new movie. Which is awesome by the way.

I finally watched The Da Vinci Code. Very good. Angels and Demons should be just as good

sisterandcousinandaunt · 05-13-2009, 04:08 PM

Not awesome. Unbelievably stupid and wrong.

i like it!

Of course.. Zelda.. lol.

I bought Digital Fortress and tried the beginning but really it's a bit disappointing so I put it away.. 4 years ago

I'm taking a girl I've just started dating to Angels and Demons

Really can't wait!!!

And yeah Sleeping Dragon is the third game! But you HAVE to play number 1 (Shadow of the Templars) and 2 (Smoking Mirror). They are superior in every sense (except the graphic is 90-ish but a lot nicer I think. The 3rd and 4th are kind of let downs..

No, Deception point isn't a Langdon novel, but it's the same idea. Strong female character, meets a guy that helps with the situation, things being kept secret from the world, people trying to kill them, typical Dan Brown book

. Yes, a new Langdon book coming out this fall (I believe!) I think it's called Solomon's Key, taking place in the US!!

Guess what!! I get my braces off next month! The Tuesday before the last day of school! WHOOPIE! I am so excited, I've had braces for four damn years...

I remember when I got my braces off. My sister was gonna get her's on in like a week or so after that so we went and saw a bunch of movies so we could eat popcorn, me to celebrate and her to get ready to give it up for a few years.

Best to ya all from ur friend Gw

**Mari** · 05-14-2009, 01:00 PM

Ah, I just came back from my internship *sinks in a chair* Those kids are exhausting, but I love 'em all

I also had a new kid in class today, I was so excited!

Though I'm quite sure I do not want to teach 8 year olds for the rest of my life, I am going to miss it.
Had four kids crying today (not my fault

), two on the bench, several seating rearrangements and I had to do a speech on how to play nicely with eachother... I got a very positive 'review' by my mentor though, so I guess I'm doing it right ^_^

Okay, I'll shut up now before I start going on and on with stories.

shesabrandybuck · 05-14-2009, 05:58 PM

Oh, but I love stories! That sounds so exciting Mari! Glad you're enjoying it

Probably a typical day for someone teaching that age group!

Good that you got a positive review

Hehe yeah that does sound like Dan Brown, but as long as the characters are captivating, the plot intriguing and we travel to at least 3 European cities then it's a-okay

Oh cool! Something with (King?) Solomon.. makes for a potentially whopping conspiratorial plot!

Good for you SSB! *Celebrates by showering her with braces*

.... Naw *Celebrates by showering her with flowers*!!!

Never needed braces but my twin sister and my youngest sister did. I never noticed them though.. but I'm sure it's nice to be rid them!

On the bright side of life, the sun is back! Weather's perfect aaaaand I'm sitting in the university library, it's 8.26 am and I'm........ typing.... and reading.......booooooooooring.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

**Mari** · 05-15-2009, 08:16 AM

Ah, I think you've got our sun then.

It was lovely yesterday, but today is wet and drab.

Oh man, I've got so much homework-catching up to do and stuff! And I need to think of ways to be 'spontaneous' with kids...

***Tessar*** · 05-15-2009, 12:28 PM

Wish me luck ladies and gentlemen... I am about to tackle a load of dishes that comprises pretty much every dish we own

.

I was going to do it yesterday, but my parents kept saying, "Oh, no... don't worry, one of us will do it. You cleaned up the backyard, we'll do the dishes."

>.< Well now things are out of control. Both sinks are full. There is spillage out onto the counters.

I'M GOING IN!!!!!!!!!

... we're also out of breakfast foods. >.< I may have to make a trip to the store...

***Tessar*** · 05-15-2009, 01:02 PM

I WIN!!!!

Yaaaaay.

BeardofPants · 05-15-2009, 03:25 PM

I made stir-fry broccoli, spinach & tofu last night, and I think I might have used every dish in the house... the BF was less than impressed when he had to do the dishes.

***Earniel*** · 05-15-2009, 03:36 PM

Man, I tried to imagine a washing up that included every dish in the house... I don't think we have enough counterspace.

Tyrfing shewed off the end of his brand new collar I got him only last week. I'm starting to think he really thinks like a puppy instead of a cat.
